Harvest From mid-September, the end of October is followed by the selection of the best bunches, on which a meticulous manual selection is made in order to remove all the less valuable grapes.
Wine making The collected grapes are placed in plastic plateaux and left to rest for three months in large open areas, where an innovative ventialing system maintains a high and capillary air flow. The fermentation is made in steel tanks at controlled temperature (about 28 ° C), equipped with a sophisticated computerized implant that allows to perform automatic punching for a period of about fifteen days, including the final two-day maceration.
Aging After decanting, in mid-January Amarone, which still has a residual sugar content, is placed in new barriques, where it takes a very slow fermentative activity that lasts for another eighteen months. The total stop in barriques lasts 24 months total. Bottling is the final phase of the production process.
